Mis-Cue's - Hairy Maclary
In the recording of the young child reading aloud 'Hairy Maclary from Donaldsons Dairy', he makes a series of mis-cues and virtuous errors which are typical for his age range and development. he pronounces the name 'Donaldson' incorrectly and this is likely to be because it is a long word containing a constonant cluster which is confusing to a less confident reader. There are times in the recording where the childmisses out a few of the connecting words such as 'and' and 'the', this is because it is quite a fast paced, rhyming story which makes it easy for children to miss out small words as they are likely to me more focused on trying to read the bigger, more complicated ones.

Overview

In the transcript, Evie's Grandmother is helping her to learn speech through playing games with her and basing them around local topics that interest Evie. As the more powerful participant, Gramdma not only selects the activity on the basis that she knows it will help Evie to develop her language, but also often corrects her vituous errors and even allows Evie to set the agenda. Evie appears to be in the telegraphic stage, and her Grandmother supports this by encouraging and supporting her speech and thought processes as in Bruner's interaction theory.
